Mobile-Branch has traditionally been used for short term applications such as :-
• Providing a banking presence at industrial and agricultural shows, trade exhibitions, factory and similar events of limited duration.
• Providing an immediate banking presence in industrial or commercial parks.
• Carrying out market research to assess the viability of establishing a permanent banking presence in an area.
• Providing continuity of banking services during branch refurbishments.
In practical terms, Mobile-Branch enables a banking presence to be established - quickly - wherever - and whenever it is required.
Using Mobile-Branch during branch refurbishment has recently taken on more than just a practical importance for two very good reasons.
Firstly Mobile-Branch enables the expensive and time consuming phasing of branch refurbishment to be avoided.
Overnight and weekend working can be eliminated. Carrying out a branch refurbishment in a single, continuous operation leads to better working practices and a more satisfactory completion with less convenience to both staff and customers.
The second benefit derived from using Mobile-Branch are improved Health 7 Safety considerations, which are becoming increasingly important. Using Mobile-Branch eliminates the possibility of injury to staff, contractors or customers during a phased branch refurbishment - an event that is not infrequent.
Increasingly, because of the speed with which modules can be assembled and commissioned, Mobile-Branch has been adopted as a cost effective way of providing a permanent banking presence, with all the security, comfort and aesthetics normally associated with a bricks and mortar branch. Some layouts of Mobile-Branch multiple-module configurations are shown below. |
